PRIOSTE, Cláudia Dias. Technology and education: looking for a pedagogy of freedom in the face of digital neocolonization. Sér.-Estud. [online]. 2019, vol.24, n.51, pp.9-29.  Epub 24-Oct-2019. ISSN 2318-1982.  https://doi.org/10.20435/serie-estudos.v24i51.1300.

This essay aims to discuss some new forms of oppression and colonization that has being developed in the digital age, as well, to examine the current relevance of educator Paulo Freire’s ideas concern to pedagogy of freedom. Considering the potential educational purpose of information and communication technologies (ICT) and that Its use keeps a promise of democratization of access to knowledge, a critical analysis of some contemporary pedagogical assumptions becomes increasingly relevant. The starting point of the reflections presented here are the empirical evidences of research that I have developed, over ten years ago, about the use of ICT by Brazilian adolescents and children, with their possible educational effects. It is important to emphasize that the critical perspective should not be reduced to a fatalistic view about the use of technology in education. On the contrary, It is expected that the propositions concern of digital neocolonization can stimulate new pedagogical positioning, especially on schooling of popular classes.

Palabras clave : technology and education; psychoanalysis and cyberculture; critical theory and technology.
